days on pensive wing

it comes to me in my twilight concernbemused mythologiesfending off carnivorous timegilded ambiguitieslike some kind of reminiscent apocalypsebeckoning me over the edge once againI feel the flourish of familiar fictitious heroesswans of seductionpromising lighter than air precipiced pirouettesfast on unfettered wing

but gravity makes for a certain dance partnerand now that eveningdims the horizon lowand my heart does faintly illumeI abjure to shadowand so now come these dayson pensive wing
